Texans' J.J. Watt out with Shoulder Injury Suffered vs. Raiders

Houston Texans star J.J. Watt suffered a shoulder injury Sunday against the Oakland Raiders and will not return, per the team.

Nobody questions how good Watt is when he's healthy. He finished with 61 combined tackles, 16 sacks and 18 tackles for loss in 2018 en route to his fifth Pro Bowl and fifth first-team All-Pro honor.

However, injuries limited him to eight games between 2016 and 2017. He underwent season-ending back surgery in September 2016 and suffered a tibial plateau fracture in October 2017.
